Fleet Evolution, a provider of salary sacrifice cars, is urging businesses to realise the potential savings by choosing electric cars.

Fleet Evolution urges businesses to realise the benefits of electric car fleets

Andrew Leech, Fleet Evolution Managing Director, said: “Many people in the UK are starting to warm to the environmental and cost benefits of owning a hybrid or electric car.

“The amount of people who own an electric car has risen dramatically since 2013, and we want to encourage companies large and small to get in on the trend. We offer a huge range of new models for businesses to choose from.”

The company says that with the average UK commute being 15 miles each day, and the average car emitting 164g/km CO2, roughly 4 kilos of CO2 per commuter per working day is produced.

Fleet Evolution says they provide and manage car salary sacrifice schemes for businesses of all sizes, procuring fleets numbering from thousands to single vehicle deals.

The benefits of owning electric and hybrid cars aren’t just limited to the environment, the company says, adding, employees partaking in a Fleet Evolution sacrifice scheme only have to pay for their new vehicle’s fuel and avoid other costs associated with running a vehicle, such as maintenance and insurance.

Fleet Evolution estimates savings of up to 45% can be had by running a fully electric car, and 33% from a full hybrid model.
